TIGERS SURVIVE...BEAT TROJANS?

Well, it wasn't pretty. In fact it was mud ugly, but my beloved LSU Tigers survived what would have been the biggest disappointment in an already tough season.

Mid-way through the third quarter, The Trojans (not USC...Troy) lead LSU 31-3...yep, 31-3. It was 31-10 Troy as the 4th quarter started. The Tiger "faithful" had mostly abandoned the stadium and headed to drown their sorrows at the Baton Rouge watering holes I guess.

I reckon we had wore Troy down though. My beloved Tigers clicked off 30 points in the 4th to avoid total seasonal failure. Well, we're 7-3 now. It could be worse I guess, but sadly, it should be much better. Oh well...Even this win is disappointing in a way. In our losses to Georgia, and 'Bama we dominated in the stats (Florida killed us)...but not against the Mighty Men of Troy. We got lucky. But then, it was time for a little bit of luck.

We've still got Ole Miss (a good team), and Arkansas (not so good this year). If we play like we can we should end up 9-3. That's not bad in the SEC. Even at 8-4 we should get a pretty good bowl game. We'll see.
